Watch: Riot police clash with fans in Paris during Champions League final
French riot police deployed tear gas and baton-charged supporters in Paris after trouble broke out during the Champions League final. Thousands of supporters gathered to watch Paris St-Germain face Inter Milan in Munich, both on a beam-back at the Parc des Princes and around the city. 🔴Nombreuses tensions sur les #ChampsElysées. Intervention des forces de l'ordre en cours. #PSGINT #UCLfinal #Paris — Charles Baudry (@CharlesBaudry) May 31, 2025 There had been trouble in Munich earlier in the day but there appeared to be more serious scenes in Paris, with flares thrown and police involved in confrontations both outside the stadium and on the Champs Elysees. That was a continuation of what had taken place in Munich, with police engaging with Inter fans at the Universität subway station at around 5.20pm local time, with the city's U-bahn struggling to cope with the number of fans attempting to reach the stadium. Frustration built among both sets of supporters about how difficult it was to board a train, and police officers in riot helmets were witnessed chasing Italian fans up escalators. Some of those fans returned, with some aiming improvised weapons at the police. They responded with pepper spray. A statement from the German police said: 'physical altercations occurred at the Universität subway station, including the use of pepper spray. An investigation into the circumstances is ongoing.' German newspaper Bild reported that Inter fans also threw stones at the Fröttmaning U-Bahn station, the stop closest to the stadium. Another social media videos showed a skirmish between fans of both teams on board a train, with supporters wearing PSG and Inter shirts respectively aiming kicks at one another. The showpiece match of Uefa's flagship competition has been beset with crowd issues in recent years, including Liverpool fans being sprayed with tear gas outside Paris's Stade de France before the 2022 final against Real Madrid. Some Manchester City fans were also forced to walk for hours to reach and return from a stadium 12 miles outside of Istanbul due to transport issues in the previous year's final. Munich has not hosted the final since 2012, when Chelsea beat Bayern Munich on penalties after a 1-1 draw. This is the first Champions League final to take place in Germany since 2015's 3-1 victory for Barcelona over Juventus in Berlin. The European Championships which took place in Germany last summer was largely free of crowd trouble, although the country's creaking rail infrastructure was a source of frustration for thousands of fans, before becoming a flashpoint again on Saturday night.

Ruben Amorim to address fans, Manchester United players to do lap of honour after season's final game
Ruben Amorim will address Manchester United supporters and players will do a lap of honour following the final game of the season on Sunday. United host Aston Villa at Old Trafford to conclude a hugely disappointing season where they will finish in their lowest position of the Premier League era. Amorim, who The Athletic revealed on Saturday has told his players he will remain in charge next season, hasn't yet decided what he will say but is conscious of the need to be 'honest' with fans after a trying year. 'An apology I think is clear, an explanation; you don't have time,' he said when asked at his press conference what tone he will strike. 'So we will try to be honest. I think I will be honest with the fans and I will say what is in my mind and what is in my heart.' Teams traditionally take time to thank supporters on the pitch following the final game of a campaign and despite the lows 2024-25 has encompassed, Amorim knows the importance of doing so. 'We will do that, it's tradition and we have to face it,' he said. 'I think it will be the biggest mistake if we don't do that. We will do that. Advertisement 'I know that the manager addresses the public, I will do that because it's the minimal, the least I can do is to talk with the fans and to say what I want to say. 'I will decide tomorrow, I have an idea, so we will do that because if there is a season that we need to do it, it's this one, and of course we will be there.' United were 14th in the league and seven points off the top four when Amorim replaced Erik ten Hag in November. With one game to play the side sit 16th, 27 points shy of the Champions League qualification places. Despite the many damning statistics Amorim insists the club are in 'a better place' with a more positive foundation for the future. 'I think it's healthier, it's a way to put it,' he added. 'You cannot see it with the results, we have worse results, but I think we are in a better place as a club with the small things that will be big things in the future, so it's hard to explain everything. I don't want to touch on every point, but yes, we are in a better place.' ()
